Dylan Hall, a Thai-Welsh luk kreung, is Thailand’s new YouTube sweetheart. In the week since Coconuts reported on Dylan’s breakout video clip, which shows him reciting Thai consonants, the video has racked up more 1.5 million views.
Dylan’s Facebook public page – “Dylan Kor Kai” –has also gained a solid fan base. More than 21,000 people have “liked” the page since it was created by Dylan’s Thai mother last Sunday. The Thai-Welsh toddler’s parent wrote on the page’s wall that she set up the page as a platform for Dylan’s fans to stay in touch and connect with him.
Dylan’s skyrocketing online fame has inspired many YouTube users to produce lip-syncing parodies of his video clip. Below, Coconuts presents two of the funniest videos of adults trying to measure up to Dylan’s adorability.
The first video in our Top Two is from noted YouTube figure Bie the Ska who has consistently released funny clips on his channel – Bomberball. Bie the Ska debuted his parody clip on Jan. 25 and has gained over 53,000 views. His video caption reads, “I watched Dylan’s clip and really liked it. I wish I could do like him.”
The other clip was uploaded by CrazyJ SuffleJ on Jan. 26. As his name suggests, Crazy J delivers his “Dylan” with a clown-like, powdered white face. Watch the clip below to judge whether it is good crazy or bad crazy.
